I do think this stuff is actually important. Trump has no particular belief in an American greatness. He only has a belief that hardcore racism is “great.” This is unambiguous proof of that.

like uh, what happens when people are obligated to shift their diets/their transportation choices/etc as a result of climate change? the one problem with abundance style discourse is that it just extrapolating the 20th/21st century imperial mode of living into the future

Think about this: The leader of the Senate Democrats just voted against 85% of his caucus all to keep sending bulldozers to Israel, so it can continue to demolish Palestinian and Lebanese people's homes.

Something like this will have to happen in this country once Trumpism is defeated. In the absence of accountability, the world will rightly assume that it will happen again.

Before I became an American, I was Lebanese. Parts of my family live in Lebanon. Anyway, you don't need those bona fides to feel this way, but what is happening in Lebanon right now is a complete outrage. The people there, who mostly are just trying to carve out a living, don't deserve this.

Trump is now totally fine with Iran as long as they cut him in on the tolls they charge. The guy has the moral fiber of a sociopathic mob boss. He is a walking atrocity.

The "duped voter" narrative is a comforting myth. If only we had better messaging. The reality is tens of millions of voters looked at a platform of mass deportation, ethnic cleansing, state violence, and the dismantling of civil rights, clearly understood it, and said, "Yes, that is what I want."

Trump went from making insane genocidal threats this morning to hyping the “golden age” of Iran hours later, and he received no concessions in between. He’s an absolute basket case who needs to be removed from power before he follows through on one of his mass murder fantasies.

As we move past today, other possibilities that have been discussed today (but that were not possible immediately) — including impeachment and removal — must be moved center stage. Congress must again show that it is alive, as must the Supreme Court. For the U.S., and the world.

Donald Trump must step down or be removed from office, and Congress must immediately return to DC to pass a War Powers Resolution to stop his war crimes in Iran.
Donald Trump’s threats to annihilate more than 90 million people are vile and reckless. We refuse to stand by while the sitting President of the United States threatens another genocide.

I hate the too-cool-for-school attitude of dismissing this with a "but they won't." That is surrendering in advance. The pressure should be put on them, the message should be unrelenting that this is what must be done and they're the ones refusing to do it. Don't act like they don't have agency.

Congress gets too much time off. They should always have coverage in DC for emergencies. Now we have to beg them to go back so they can do something about the president. Imagine if you took off from your job and didn’t have anyone cover for you while you’re out. Congress is barely a real job rn.

I'm not sure how you can be against removing this man from office right now. What will it take? A nuke being dropped? It's too late then. The purpose of impeachment and the 25th Amendment is to prevent that type of thing from happening, not just to react to it.

We cannot allow him to wipe out a civilization. And I also worry that if he opts for devastating air strikes that don't involve nuclear weapons, it will somehow be reported as "cooler heads prevailing". No, that's unacceptable. It's all unacceptable and he has to be removed from having these powers.

So what this describes is ethnic cleansing www.nytimes.com/2026/04/01/w...

But behind the scenes, Israeli officials have conveyed a more targeted message.

In private calls to local leaders across southern Lebanon, Israeli military officials have assured several Christian and Druse communities that they could remain in the evacuation zone. They have pressed them, however, to force out any Lebanese from neighboring Shiite Muslim communities who have sought refuge among them as Israeli bombardment flatten Shiite towns, according to local Christian, Druse and Shiite leaders who spoke to The New York Times. The Shiites make up the majority of southern Lebanon.

It is extremely wrong how Dems talking point on this is that paying TSA by EO is totally legal and he should have done it sooner. It is not legal, that $10B is only for border security and TSA is not border security. He's stealing the power of the purse, stop saying he should have done it sooner!

And spare me any complaints that this isn’t what the public wanted, the right wing has been selling “we don’t need to buy anything or worry about any of those overseas problems, and if somebody tries to mess with us, let’s just kick their ass” since the end of the Reagan era.

Trump: "We have a thing called a war, or as they would rather say, a military operation. It's for legal reasons. Because as a military operation, I don't need any approvals. As a war you're supposed to get approval from Congress. Something like that. So I call it a military operation."
